OK, my thoughts on eps 1-2: I wish I hadn't read Vivi's post before I made this one. Now, instead of appearing like I independently came up with the same impressions, I have to AGREE with her, which is an awful feeling, ha. - The visuals are terrible. Character designs are some of the...

Ep 1: I kind of enjoyed it in a cheesy retro-90s sort of way. Out of curiosity, did Sailor Moon spawn the sailor uniform fetish or did the sailor uniform fetish spawn Sailor Moon? I WANT TO KNOW.

Unrelated, but is FMA really a remake, and not a sequel? I never finished the first one and want to know if I need to plow through the original to watch this one.

Well, I've already seen X TV and didn't think it was good enough to watch again, but sign me up for Sailor Moon. I've been meaning to see the show for some time now but have never gotten around to it. HOWEVER! I reserve the right to drop the show after a few episodes. I feel there's a reasonable...

Final thoughts: In terms of narrative, this series is a mess. At no time does the story seem to have any idea of where it's going. Rather than develop any core theme in the early to middle stages, the series is content to simply meander between episodic plots and half-hearted attempts at a main...

Well, I went ahead and finished the series. This, pretty much. I thought I'd have a lot to say about the ending, but I'm just indifferent to the entire affair. There's a distinct lack of focus to how they ultimately decided to go about things; the "life isn't worth living without death"...

That's pretty much my opinion of the show, actually. It's a bizarre, sometimes weirdly funny show that manages to be consistently entertaining, but at the same time the characters are paper-thin and the plot isn't as clever as it thinks it is. Overall it's an interesting exercise in excess but I...

Episode 20:

Trying to catch up... and failing! Ep 18: EDIT: Saw episode 19 before I went to bed.

Blegh. Behind again. Sorry, life has been unusually demanding lately. EP17: And yes, the three H's were all a little bit retarded. :P

When you guys hear the new new ED, do you think of the ED to Detroit Metal City? Because I do, and it's a very large problem in terms of actually taking this anime seriously. Regarding my expectations of the series' ending, I don't really have any. I sort of gave up on the main overarching plot...

Apologies for falling behind a bit. Eps 13 + 14 were interesting; it seems like the main plot might be kicking in after a series of false starts, but I'm not holding my breath. Episode 15 might be my favorite episode so far. I'll talk more about it (and episode 16, which I haven't watched yet)...

Eps 11-12:

Ep 9: Episode 10: As a whole I'd agree with Valondar. Nothing amazing, but solid nonetheless.

That's exactly it, in my opinion: Paranoia Agent was hilarious, brainy, weird and cool, but I didn't care one whit for any of the characters at the end. They were just amusing toys. As Vivi says, Tokyo Godfathers does a much better job at that. Also, bringing up Evangelion is actually an...

I think characters tend to be a casualty of pretentious shows. It might be a matter of basic priority: if you care about the characters too much then usually they become too complex to fit within the framework of, say, the broad theme of addiction to technology. In fact, the only truly...

Ep 7: Ep 8:

I'm sad you didn't like my review, but the point of a review is to be as objective as possible. I didn't like anything about the show, but I gave it an 11/10. Therefore my review is as objective as it possibly can be.

I agree that the BGM is definitely a step up from the average work. As for your predictions, you know me too well. :P I enjoyed eps 1-5, but thought 6 was cliche-ridden and somewhat boring. Up to ep 5 Casshern Sins was a 7/10, but if things continue in the vein of ep 6 that rating will probably...
